So Rivers is going to have a chance to win this one with a FG!

CletusPyle 12-14-2025 08:06 PM

JT needs to run like a madman!

DragonTails 12-14-2025 08:09 PM

Play action and hit Warren on a slant. JC

Racehorse 12-14-2025 08:11 PM

They are stacking Taylor. Run him outside

DragonTails 12-14-2025 08:13 PM

Wasting first fkn down every time. Play to win the MFR game.

Racehorse 12-14-2025 08:14 PM

Who missed Badgley? Not me!

YDFL Commish 12-14-2025 08:15 PM

Grupe!!,

CletusPyle 12-14-2025 08:15 PM

Unbelievable.....47 seconds is a long time!

TheMugwump 12-14-2025 08:16 PM

A 60 yarder? Really? Okay, good luck.

Ho-Lee ...

WaynesWorld87 12-14-2025 08:16 PM

Fucking nailed it!

However, we probably left too much time on the clock.

TheMugwump 12-14-2025 08:17 PM

Seattle's coach did a great job saving time. But no time outs left.

We'll see.

Good Luck.

Racehorse 12-14-2025 08:18 PM

Need a sack

CletusPyle 12-14-2025 08:18 PM

This sucks....can't we ever win a close one!

WaynesWorld87 12-14-2025 08:19 PM

Yep, one play and the Seahawks are pretty much in FG range. These new kickoff rules make it where teams only need 10-20 yards (depending on their kicker) to reasonably attempt a game-winning or game-tying FG.

nate505 12-14-2025 08:20 PM

Absolute joy to absolute depression...so quickly.

Racehorse 12-14-2025 08:21 PM

It was fun, but that sucked

DragonTails 12-14-2025 08:22 PM

just needed one more first down and they played it like a bunch of pussies.

Why go get Rivers and then make those calls.

albany ed 12-14-2025 08:22 PM

I am not gonna bitch about this game. My team played their hearts out and should be very proud. Good clock management by Seattle on our last drive.

Script writers fucked us again!

Lov2fish 12-14-2025 08:23 PM

There's that Colts defense we know. Absolutely can not get off the fucking field when you absolutely needed it. The experiment with Rivers needs to end today. He can't roll out. He can't scramble. He can't throw it more than 15 yards. No zip on the ones he does throw. I do not give a fuck about feel good stories, or atta boys we almost got it!

In my rat's ass of an opinion, Jonathan Taylor is an MVP-caliber running back ...... and MVP-caliber running backs are capable of running rampant, even if the opposing defense is great, and even if his own quarterback is 44 years-old with the mobility of a wooden chair.

I think that Taylor will have an excellent game today, in spite of the proverbial deck being stacked against him.

Taylor didn't run rampant, but he still had an excellent game ...... he really did well to keep a lot of pressure off of Philip Rivers.

Yeah, I agree. That was painful to watch.

7-1 to 8-6 Ballard status?
 
From 7-1 to 8-6. I assume if(when) they miss playoffs Ballard is gone.

WaynesWorld87 12-14-2025 08:29 PM

I thought we'd get smoked today, so the loss isn't surprising in the least. But to come so damn close only to lose like that turns into what I thought was going to be a "no sweat, who cares, stress free" loss into a crushing, "fuck this shit" loss.

That more-or-less ends/kills our playoff hopes so now I can really go into "fuck it" mode.

Has a team ever had this big of a collapse? We were 8-2 and legitimately looked like the best team in the NFL. Our point-differential through the first, what, 8 or 9 games was historic? All indicators pointed to us winning 12+ games and making the playoffs. Yet, at the same time, is anyone surprised this has happened? Obviously the Jones injury made this loss eminent, but this has to be up there with one of the worst collapses in NFL history, yet for some reason not surprising.

I'm getting some vibes that are somewhat reminiscent from the 2014 Colts' upset win over Peyton Manning's Denver Broncos in that season's divisional playoff game in Denver ...... the underdog road team in the all-white uniforms are hanging in there in a big road game, as they did in that game 11 years ago.

Alas, it turned out like the 1995 AFC Championship game ...... such a valiant effort, such a heartbreaking loss, and such an easy team to love.

We are all but eliminated, I hope they just let Riley finish it out.

I would prefer to see AR return, but I agree

Ravens in 2021 were 8-3 and finished 8-9. Lamar Jackson got sick if I remember right, then returned for two games and didn't look like himself, then fucked his ankle up and missed the final month+.

Sounds familiar.

Jags had a huge fall to the Titans a few years ago. I think Tennessee did the same to give Houston the division, I think

I agree. Rivers played his heart out, but at 44 he's physically done. I hope they start Leonard next week and he sits next to Rivers and soaks up some of that HOF knowledge.

I feel like Pittsburgh really exposed us and gave everyone the blueprint on how to beat the Colts. Stop the run, blitz often, and make Jones beat you through the air. Then Buckner and Ward get hurt. Jones breaks his leg and can’t move. Everything just kind of happened at once. I still think we are a top 10 team when heathy. Thats what’s frustrating to me. Can’t overcome all these injuries.

One first down away from icing the game, settling for a 60 yard field goal and leaving time on the clock was just a terrible decision right there

No one is getting fired. I don’t know why people keep saying that.

I would be SHOCKED if anyone gets fired after this season.

Really, Seattle played that perfectly. The Colts could have gone for it on 4th down but they were behind. If the game had been tied, it would have been defensible. As it was, they had to kick the field goal.

Seattle played that brilliantly.
